They will help you learn about your rights by clicking on the service you are interested in. You can also have reviews straight to your browser by installing the web browser plug-in from links that are at the end of the publication.

Whenever you need to sign up for an online service or install an app on your devices, you agree with the developer's, company, or developer's terms of service without even knowing what you are agreeing to.

The overwhelming majority of users do not read the terms of service, and simply agree with them. The reasons for this are many: on the one hand, the difficult understanding of legal terminology and on the other hand the huge amount of information as if simply bypassing the reading process with one click to accept.

The researchers estimate that the chronicle that an average person would spend reading the terms of service they come across in their life would reach 76 business days.

It is clear that the system does not work for the consumer, but it works very well in favor of the companies that provide these services.

The Terms of Service? Didn't Read is a user rights initiative designed to “rate and highlight website privacy terms and policies.”

What you will see is a plus summary of a service's terms of service or privacy policy;

For example

YouTube gets a D, Google one C, GitHub one B, and DuckDuckGo an A. The best rating is A, and the worst is E.

The service lists positives, negatives and neutrals in a list so you can check them at a glance. By clicking on the link "more details" you can read more information about the point of the summary that interests you.

As we mentioned before, in addition to the projec websitet, there are extensions for different browsers.

They are all open source and show a hint on the browser UI if you visit a supported site.

Clicking on the summary is displayed of the conditions of use for this site. The Chrome extension also displays a desktop notification if the web pages have been badly evaluated.
